Crusade For Bandiness

Today was one of those happy, quirky days. I mean, it was still a sucky day, but given that, I was in a decent mood. No reason why. That kid with the fantastic orange hair was on the bus today. That made me chipper. I patted him on the head, ruffling his hair a little. "Hey! It's Kid With Beautiful Hair!" He gave me a little bit of an odd look.

In studio I joined Jeremy's gang. I felt bad because I had turned him down the first time around, and he was losing members like bang, so when he asked me again, I joined. Plus, he is just flat-out cooler than Brandon. They had both been bribing John Wise, but when I went with Jeremy's gang/mafia, so did he. "I have to be in the same gang as Angela." haha... With John and me on one side? Jeremy's side? Pow! We shall slay them all!

Ok, this gives rise to a new discussion. The whole gang thing is supposed to be a joke, but I can see them actually getting a little tense about it. Brandon's gang was all generally enjoying insulting this Jeremy Ware, both to his face and behind his back. Get this: They're jumping all over his style! I couldn't believe it. He has fantastic style.

Examples:

• His awesome Christian Lindskog hair? "Yeah, he's got lesbian hair."
• He "stole" this one girl's jean jacket and was wearing it. He looked really bandy. "Oh my gosh. That fits you? It actually kind of matches. You look like a lesbian. If I saw you from behind I would definitely think you were a lesbian. Eww, that's messed up, take it off!"
• Brandon was trying to convince someone to join his gang and he said, looking right at this bandy kid, and he's getting a little serious, mind you: "Yeah, join our gang. We don't wear girls jeans." I was like, Ahh! That's the whole reason to join Jeremy's gang!

WOW, I was suprised at how un-cool they truly are. I mean, I knew they weren't cool, but I didn't think it was this bad. I always thought they appreciated Jeremy's rad style. I guess I was wrong.

And, although I felt bad for the bandy kid, I did gleen some vicious delight from this: Emma KVD was right in there with them, going on not-so-jokingly about him looking like a lesbian with the jacket and having bad hair. HA! Cold, hard evidence! She's an even BIGGER poseur than I thought! So I was happy to see her revert to her true side. Because that kid has the best style in our school, and he almost always looks flat-out awesome.

Hmpfh. Bandy kids should have equal rights, too. Support your local boy (or girl) with a lip ring.
